Import plugin into Eclipse workspace [message #329289]

I have 2 plugin projects, I'll call them A and B as an example. Project B
uses project A.

If i export project A as a "Deployable plug-ins and fragments" from
Eclipse with the "package plug-ins as individual JAR archives" option
checked. Then i can import the plugin A into my workspace again and all is
good.

However if i export project A as a "Deployable plug-ins and fragments"
from Eclipse with the "package plug-ins as individual JAR archives" option
unchecked. Then, on import, the project B cannot use the project A.

Is this a feature? Am I missing some classpath that needs to be set for
binary projects (but not for binary projects in a JAR archive)?

Best Regards

Hi,

How did you import the plugin? Did you import as binary w/linked content
or binary or otherwise?

Hi,
Thanks for answering!

I use "Import" -> "Plug-ins and Fragments" -> ["Import From"="Plug-In
location", "Import As"="Binary Projects" / "Binary Projects with Linked
Content" (I have tried both with the same result)] -> then i selected the
required plugin.

Best regards
